A chav/chavette is a social class, typical of sovereign rings, shell suits, gold necklaces, burberry and cars(normally vauxhall corsa/astra) with spoilers. The staple diet for a chav is turkey twizzlers and chips and a nice meal is Maccy Dees. The children are usually called Dwayne, Jarrod, Chantelle, Demi and all of them suffer from attention deficit disorder.The only time you will see a male chav in a suit is when he pleads not guilty. A chavette enjoys a good night on the pull after drinking seven bottles of lambrini.

The term has also been associated with delinquency, the "ASBO Generation", and "Yob culture
